The newest single by South African sonic titans Deadline entitled ‘Cult Of Prometheus’ is a smouldering slab of vicious Heavy Metal splendour that will set your being alight in a blistering wildfire of bliss.
Taken from their upcoming album ‘Vitriol Inc.’ this propulsive piece of pounding drums, siren like vocals and scorching riffs is Heavy Metal distilled to purest essence; a helping of musical incandesence that is hellbent for leather.
Drawing upon mythology and presenting us with a sonic tapestry that speaks of sovereignty in the face of subordination, ‘Cult Of Prometheus’ takes no prisoners in its quest to crush all naysayers in its ironclad grasp.
Available for your listening pleasure on the 13 of January, ‘Cult Of Prometheus’ will spirit you away on a tide of rollicking rhythms, mammoth melodies and pummeling pacing. Be sure to take a gander at the accompanying music video which will be available on the aforementoned date as well which acts as a great visual accompaniment to this infectious track.
Opening with a frenzy of bludgeoning drums and rapid-fire guitar hysteria then progressing on a trajetory of rousing Heavy Metal warfare, ‘Cult Of Prometheus’ invokes the glory days of Judas Priest, Raven, Mercyful Fate, Saxon and Savatage. With a sparkling solo in its latter half ‘ Cult Of Prometheus’ charges ahead with unrestrained power.
Herein the soaring vocals of frontman Jessy Switchblade, the crunching riffs of Judge Mental and The Skullprit alongside the bass onslaught of Damien Dread and the delerious drumming of Wrighteous Mike collide with explosive menace, leaving a miasma of celestial light in their wake.
This song embodies Metal! It is a triumphant call to arms! Don your silver studded leather apparel as you prepare to pump your fists skyward in an orgy of heathenisitc celebration for ‘Cult Of Prometheus’ is the sonic equivalent to a Roman orgy helmed by the infamous Emperor Caligula.
